I did that on a unit that had 2 sofas. Took one out, plywood to build up floor and used laminate flooring over the plywood to meet the carpet. Turned out nice. Put in 2 rocker recliners in the area. Just miss the storage under the sofa. Better for kicking back for TV. One tip is try to find...

The use of Vaseline on rubber components should be avoided. It is a petroleum based product that can break down the material over time. A silicone plumbers grease would be better. Handy to have for O-rings,gaskets and such. It is made for high temperature applications such as faucet assemblies...

I figured this subject might stir the pot a little. I have a residential in our big camper and love the room because we are in it full time for 1/2 the year. The main reason I posted was, after 30 years in retail, it is good to see a manufacturer, regardless who they are, put the outcome ahead...

I AM WORKING ON AN OLD MALLARD TRAILER JUST FOR TAKING TO MUSIC FESTS. MAKES ME APPRECIATE OUR NEW KEYSTONE 38 FOOTER EVEN MORE. WHAT I AM MISSING, AND HAVE SEARCHED LIKE CRAZY TO FIND IS THE MODE CONTROL KNOB FOR GAS TO ELECTRIC ON THE NORCOLD 875EG2 FRIG. ANYBODY HAVE ANY IDEAS? HAVE GOOGLED...
